Weekly salary-cap fantasy hockey. Pick eight NHL players under a $50,000 cap, lock Monday at 7:00 PM ET, score all week, reset. No draft, no waivers, no trades. Just the cap and the schedule.
Every player has a weekly salary set from recent production, role and how many games their team plays. Everyone has $50,000. Eight players, under the cap, or you can't lock. Stars cost real money — the value is usually in the middle-six guy with four games.
Monday 7:00 PM ET, every week. Not 7:01. We've heard every story and the server has heard none of them.

Goals, assists, shots, blocks, power-play and short-handed bonuses for skaters; wins, saves, goals against and shutouts for goalies. Full table on the How it works page. Commissioners will be able to tune weights after beta.
Yes. Same pool, same prices, same cap, so a good lineup is a good lineup everywhere. Bragging rights are portable.
Two to twenty teams. Under two, you're just talking to yourself — which the app supports, but won't celebrate.
Yes. Solo mode scores your lineup against everyone on Capcraft that week. Great for practice; less great for gloating.
After lock, everyone in your league can. Before lock, nobody. Public lineups are the whole reason arguments end.
Free during beta. If that ever changes you'll hear well in advance, and your league's history comes with you.
iOS and the web, sharing one account. Android when it's good, not before.
Join the waitlist with your league size. Invites go out in league-sized batches so nobody plays week one alone. Commissioners get a bundle for their whole league.
